Here is a great Gi based Choke setup for Brazilian Jiu-jitsu when you have Back Mount but are losing the position, or are letting the person escape in a calculated way.
The video for today was inspired by a recent match sent to me by one of the viewers.
He’s a White Belt, and almost had the Bow and Arrow choke which is very popular in BJJ. But he lost it as he was unable to get his second leg free.
For this video I show a Bow and Arrow choke setup I like using as a bigger guy. This will get rid of the position where our buddy got his leg stuck during his Brazilian Jiujitsu match.
The choke setup can be used from Back Mount either if you’re losing the back.
or
You can use the setup to lay a trap for your opponent. If you secure the lapel grip correctly. The person will be unable to turn towards you which will lock the person in place. This will allow you to come up and finish the choke from a top position.
This is beneficial for a BJJ tournament situation because you maintain dominant position.
It’s also beneficial as it gives your numerous other options involving chokes and armlocks.
Give this submission a try, I hope it helps with your Brazilian Jiu-jitsu. And thanks again to Anselmo for the question.
